  • Ommastrephidae 199
    click for previous page Decapodiformes: Ommastrephidae 199 OMMASTREPHIDAE Flying squids iagnostic characters: Medium- to Dlarge-sized squids. Funnel locking appara- tus with a T-shaped groove. Paralarvae with fused tentacles. Arms with biserial suckers. Four rows of suckers on tentacular clubs (club dactylus with 8 sucker series in Illex). Hooks never present hooks never on arms or clubs. One of the ventral pair of arms present usually hectocotylized in males. Buccal connec- tives attach to dorsal borders of ventral arms. Gladius distinctive, slender. funnel locking apparatus with Habitat, biology, and fisheries: Oceanic and T-shaped groove neritic. This is one of the most widely distributed and conspicuous families of squids in the world. Most species are exploited commercially. Todarodes pacificus makes up the bulk of the squid landings in Japan (up to 600 000 t annually) and may comprise at least 1/2 the annual world catch of cephalopods.In various parts of the West- ern Central Atlantic, 6 species of ommastrephids currently are fished commercially or for bait, or have a potential for exploitation. Ommastrephids are powerful swimmers and some species form large schools. Some neritic species exhibit strong seasonal migrations, wherein they occur in huge numbers in inshore waters where they are accessable to fisheries activities. The large size of most species (commonly 30 to 50 cm total length and up to 120 cm total length) and the heavily mus- cled structure, make them ideal for human con- ventral view sumption. Similar families occurring in the area Onychoteuthidae: tentacular clubs with claw-like hooks; funnel locking apparatus a simple, straight groove.

  • Kostromateuthis Roemeri Gen
    A rare coleoid mollusc from the Upper Jurassic of Central Russia LARISA A. DOGUZHAEVA Doguzhaeva, L.A. 2000. Arare coleoid mollusc from the Upper Jurassic of Central Rus- sia. -Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 45,4,389-406. , The shell of the coleoid cephalopod mollusc Kostromateuthis roemeri gen. et sp. n. from the lower Kirnmeridgian of Central Russia consists of the slowly expanding orthoconic phragmocone and aragonitic sheath with a rugged surface, a weakly developed post- alveolar part and a long, strong, probably dorsal groove. The sheath lacks concentric struc- ture common for belemnoid rostra. It is formedby spherulites consisting of the needle-like crystallites, and is characterized by strong porosity and high content of originally organic matter. Each spherulite has a porous central part, a solid periphery and an organic cover. Tubular structures with a wall formed by the needlelike crystallites are present in the sheath. For comparison the shell ultrastructure in Recent Spirula and Sepia, as well as in the Eocene Belemnosis were studied with SEM. Based on gross morphology and sheath ultrastructure K. memeri is tentatively assigned to Spirulida and a monotypic family Kostromateuthidae nov. is erected for it. The Mesozoic evolution of spirulids is discussed. Key words : Cephalopoda, Coleoidea, Spirulida, shell ultrastructure, Upper Jurassic, Central Russia. krisa A. Doguzhaeva [[email protected]], Paleontological Institute of the Russian Acad- emy of Sciences, Profsoyuznaya 123, 117647 Moscow, Russia. Introduction The mainly soft-bodied coleoids (with the exception of the rostrum-bearing belem- noids) are not well-represented in the fossil record of extinct cephalopods that results in scanty knowledge of the evolutionary history of Recent coleoids and the rudimen- tary understanding of higher-level phylogenetic relationships of them (Bonnaud et al.

  • 8 Armed Bandits; a Closer Look at Cephalopods an Educator’S Guide to the Program
    8 Armed Bandits; A Closer Look at Cephalopods An Educator’s Guide to the Program Grades K-5 Program Description: This program explores the class of mollusk known as cephalopods. Cephalopods are the most intelligent group of mollusk and most of them lack a shell. The name cephalopod means “head-foot” and contains: octopus, squid, cuttlefish and nautilus. The goal of 8-armed bandits is to teach students the characteristics, defense mechanisms, and extreme intelligence of cephalopods. *Before your class visits the Oklahoma Aquarium* This guide contains information and activities for you to use both before and after your visit to the Oklahoma Aquarium. You may want to read stories about cephalopods and their abilities to the students, present information in class, or utilize some of the activities from this booklet. 1 Table of Contents 8 armed bandits abstract 3 Educator Information 4 Vocabulary 5 Internet resources and books 6 PASS/OK Science standards 7-8 Accompanying Activities Build Your Own squid (K-5) 9 How do Squid Defend Themselves?

  • Belosaepia Fossils
    BELOSAEPIA FOSSILS These coleoid fossils are commonly thought to be the teeth, beaks or jaw parts of various coleiods such as squid and octopods, or even the mouth parts of non-coleoid nautiloids. But this is only the heavily calcified portion of the belosaepiid skeleton. Recent discoveries in central Texas produced exceptionally well-preserved fossils of Belosaepia, including weakly calcified portions of the skeleton containing many chambers and a large proostracum. BELOSAEPIA SKELETON The Belosaepia skeleton (guard) consists of a solid prong, septate phragmocone with large siphuncle and large thin-walled proostracum. Septa of the phragmocone are thin, easily damaged and rarely preserved. portion missing Belosaepia sp., Crockett Fm., late Middle Eocene, Little Brazos River, Brazos County, Texas Chris Garvie, collector BELOSAEPIA PRESERVATION Septa of the phragmocone are thin, easily damaged and destroyed, separating the solid prong portion of the skeleton from the sediment fill of the siphuncle of the skeleton.

  • High-Level Classification of the Nautiloid Cephalopods: a Proposal for the Revision of the Treatise Part K

King • David H. Evans Received: 4 November 2018 / Accepted: 13 February 2019 / Published online: 14 March 2019 Ó Akademie der Naturwissenschaften Schweiz (SCNAT) 2019 Abstract High-level classification of the nautiloid cephalopods has been largely neglected since the publication of the Russian and American treatises in the early 1960s. Although there is broad general agreement amongst specialists regarding the status of nautiloid orders, there is no real consensus or consistent approach regarding higher ranks and an array of superorders utilising various morphological features has been proposed. With work now commencing on the revision of the Treatise Part K, there is an urgent need for a methodical and standardised approach to the high-level classification of the nautiloids. The scheme proposed here utilizes the form of muscle attachment scars as a diagnostic feature at subclass level; other features (including siphuncular structures and cameral deposits) are employed at ordinal level. We recognise five sub- classes of nautiloid cephalopods (Plectronoceratia, Multiceratia, Tarphyceratia nov., Orthoceratia, Nautilia) and 18 orders including the Order Rioceratida nov. which contains the new family Bactroceratidae. This scheme has the advantage of relative simplicity (it avoids the use of superorders) and presents a balanced approach which reflects the considerable morphological diversity and phylogenetic longevity of the nautiloids in comparison with the ammonoid and coleoid cephalopods.
